Doesn't this exist already? mh? See http://wiki.mutt.org/?MuttQuotes about "MH". :) Anyway, sure, but you dropped the relevant paragraph from my response: what's mutt about, and who decides what's in/ out? > Please use that to read all your mail for 10 days, and then tell me > that having features you want coded into your mailer isn't better. Definitely I'm happy with mutt as it is, but as much as you and others would like to add _more_ to it, I'd like to _strip_ it off some parts "not belonging there" (by my taste, like smtp or spam). -- © Rado S. -- You must provide YOUR effort for your goal!
